Scientific Interests

  • Frying

Changes induced by the frying process the to food being fried and to the frying medium

Novel apparatus and method that determines oil quality degradation during frying

  • Dynamics of Interfaces

Dynamic interfacial tension and interfacial rheology (dilatational and shear): effect in colloidal food systems and relation to food quality

Capillary penetration, solid/liquid contact angle: effect and transfer in complex food systems

  • Technology and Quality Control of Dietary Oils and Fats

Olive oil technology and quality control

Oils and fats technology and quality control

Technology and quality control of complex fat/oil based dispersions such as chocholate/praline fillings
